WASHINGTON (AP) — Georgetown freshman big man Thomas Sorber will miss the rest of the season because of a foot injury.
The school announced Tuesday that Sorber injured his left foot on Feb. 15 in a loss at Butler and would have surgery on Wednesday.
Sorber is the Hoyas’ second-leading scorer and top rebounder. He averaged 14.5 points and 8.5 rebounds over 24 games.
A Trenton, New Jersey, native, Sorber was a top-50 recruit out of Archbishop Ryan High School in Philadelphia and ranked third out of the state of Pennsylvania.
Georgetown (16-11, 7-9 Big East) visits UConn on Wednesday night and hosts No. 21 Marquette on Saturday before wrapping up conference regular-season play next week against Villanova and DePaul.
